Franklin Mendels was an economic historian born in 1943 in France to Dutch parents. He is renowned for his research on proto-industry and his pioneering 1972 article that reshaped the understanding of the Industrial Revolution. His work highlighted how industrial development in 18th-century Flanders allowed peasants to marry at younger ages, resulting in a population increase and a shift towards agricultural and proto-industrial multi-activity. This new labor force's increasing impoverishment led to the consolidation of poor peasants in larger factories operated by merchant-manufacturers well-connected with urban centers.
